The Index scorecard
NuvaHealth scored on our six Cost-Efficiency Index factors. See the methodology.
Where the value is
- LegitScript certified with a working verification badge
- Names four real pharmacy partners (Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts, Casa Pharma Rx) rather than one anonymous 'licensed pharmacy'
- All 50 states served per its own FAQ
- Free shipping stated as included, not itemized separately
The tradeoffs
- The headline $89/$139 prices are explicitly first-month-only per NuvaHealth's own FAQ — the real month-two-plus recurring price is not published anywhere and only appears at checkout after intake
- No named prescriber or medical director anywhere on the site
- No dose-tier pricing table, so it's impossible to know what a titrated-up dose costs even in month one
- No lab testing or Certificate of Analysis disclosure found
The bottom line
Best for: Shoppers comfortable finding out the real recurring price only at checkout. NuvaHealth is a compounded GLP-1 telehealth platform serving all 50 states, dispensing through four named pharmacy partners (Belmar, Strive, Epiq Scripts, Casa Pharma Rx) and LegitScript certified.

Compare with other providers
All 538 other providers we've modeled, in Cost-Efficiency Index order. See the ranked alternatives to NuvaHealth.
- #126Mixx Health & Wellness— Mixx Health & Wellness is a compounded-GLP-1 telehealth clinic under medical director Dr. James David Lawrence III, MD (Georgia), sourcing 'Compounded GLP-1/GIP' from a named pharmacy, Promise Pharmacy (Palm Harbor, FL).68/100
- #127Neuvé Health— Neuvé Health prices twelve GLP-1 products openly — injectable and sublingual, standard and low dose, with a B12 or a glycine base — and then says three different things about whether the medication is inside the monthly figure.68/100
- #128SexyMD— SexyMD prints "from $199" and "from $299" on every page, but those are its 48-week commitment rates: the four-week price is $269 for compounded semaglutide and $369 for tirzepatide.68/100
- #129Oak— Publishes nine different "starting" prices and attaches a term to none of them — the two cheapest appear only beside a $200-off badge its own affiliate page defines as a three-month package, so this ranking files no figure for Oak at all.65/100
- #130MyDrHank— Every price this site advertises is a twelve-month prepay rate — its price display returns the cheapest term by design — so the real month-to-month cost is $249-$349, not the "from $171" on the page.65/100
- #131Alternate Health Club— Alternate Health Club is a compounded-GLP-1 telehealth storefront offering semaglutide at $129/month and tirzepatide at $169/month, both marketed as flat rates that do not rise as the dose is titrated up a real.67/100
